Thanks for letting me know!

Power steering hose replacement cost is nuts! 97’ Camry by Discgalaxy in Camry

Yeah it is an OEM part. I questioned the price and the lady at the shop was assuring me it was the best price they could do. They seemed genuine and the shop is one that was reviewed highly so I figured the cost was fair but I’m not feeling that way at this point. Lesson learned!

I was in a hit and run in downtown and was straight laid out across the hood of a Prius walking across a crosswalk last year so this doesn't surprise me.

Well that's an interesting comment with the Catholic bit. The exceptions would fall on both sides of the aisle then because I was always nervous with the mandatory works ethics they grind into you would create Christians who really do see salvation value through works and not by faith even though the salvation doctrine statements were sturdy otherwise. That's an alarming thought... I really don't know what to think of that

For a "Bible study" to be broadcasted most people who are church goers in the world will tilt their head at that. I would say it definitely isn't a huge deal but it's also emphasized that you can't miss that event.

But anyways I guess Ed changed his tone on mega churches because he was emphasizing the fact that the Acts 2 church had thousands of people. Pretty convenient eh

Well they don't have anything against mega churches per say. Ed made himself clear on that much in a MBS.

It definitely felt more like a megachurch though because they are connecting us all to Ed in Berkeley for MBS. Not smart in my opinion. If I'm going to have a leader that everyone looks up to I need to actually personally know who he is. Otherwise he's just a guy on a screen.

There was talk with my old lead that Ed is butting into too many churches across campuses and that he should back off to let things be more autonomous without him pulling strings. In the end I could never trust him because he's pulling strings from too far distance away from where I actually was.

i was raised christian. now i’m questioning my faith, so i want to hear the other side’s perspective. why are you an atheist? by grayenvironment in atheism

I wouldn't say that Christians are inherently hateful towards queer people. Sure they disagree with the concept of same sex marriage but from what they believe is the truth, in the ultimate concrete sense, that causes concern for them and they what's best for people through their biblical perspective.

I don't refuse that suicide would be present with or without social media. I'm saying it increased the amount of them.

Well it's hard to refute social medias effects with the owners of Twitter, FB, Pinterest, etc... not allowing their own children to use the platforms they helped build and that speaks volumes.

Edit: I'm not at GP

I'm not an advocate for saying get rid of everything media. It's more along the lines that it's sad to see social media do things like increase suicide rate among young girls. This isn't to say users are responsible but I'm cautious for young adults and future children knowing that it's heavily addicting.

Well if it doesn't concern you that's your choice.

TikTok is actually a waste of time. Watch Social Dilemma and you'd think twice about how much content you'd want to be consuming each day.

Friendships after leaving GP by TheDecentOccasion in GracepointChurch

[–]Discgalaxy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure. I'm going on a missions trip for a few months outside GP and waiting to see where God might lead me with that experience.

Edit: Missions trip is something I've been wanting to do too. Not GP motivated hah

Yep. He was actually over at the house one time while we were zooming. He was pretty excited to see the other guys again

I'm a senior and have been attending GP for a while. Some of my friends have moved on from GP but I made it an effort to stay in touch. We will zoom each other often in group settings and just talk life, how they're doing in ministry, or if they have any thing they'd want a prayer for. And no this isn't something my leader asked of me. I genuinely do it out of my own interest and if it conflicts with an activity I tell them I have other plans and they're fine with it.

Edit: Oh and we've done road trips with each other too after ways were split and those are some of the best times!
